    About this ebook

    Missives in support of Scottish Independence. A narative of the dysfunctional, right-wing dominated, politics of the United Kingdom over two years when Scottish democracy was challenged and denied. From unbalanced Westminster budgets to Supreme Court Judgments stopping the Scottish people from having a referedum upon their future.
